Buddy Holly's Heartbreaking Loss

Buddy Holly's Heartbreaking Loss

Rock and roll pioneer Buddy Holly proposed to his wife Maria five hours after their first date, and they were married within two months. Maria was pregnant when Holly died in a plane crash six months later. Unfortunately, she had a miscarriage the day after his death and didn't attend the funeral. Since then, it has become policy to notify family members of tragedies before releasing their names to the public. She inherited everything but signed over 50% to his family.
